일본 알프스‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪6‬개의 협곡

A lovely little hiking trail with great viewpoints. One section requires a bit of climbing.

This cliff sits at the border between Nagano and Shizuoka prefecture, right above the Sanpuku-toge Wildflower Meadow. Do not get too close, when enjoying this breathtaking scenery. There is always a danger of landslides and rockfall.

Here the new Seinaiji Kaido route leads through a cutting with extemely high and steep rockfaces on both sides of the road. The place is beautiful but also dangerous. There is quite an amount of rock fall so proceed with caution. The cutting was made when to road was built in 1909. There a soba and venison restaurant close by and a beautiful waterfall with a natural pool on the other side of the road. Great place to cool down in summer.

Not too challenging but wear good footwear. Place gets very crowded so arrive early to avoid the jam.

This is the best place to view the Tenryukyo Gorge in all its glory. There is an Onsen Hotspring and a restaurant close by.

From Ryūkakuhō (龍角峯), literally meaning Dragon-Horn-Peak, you have a complete view over Tenryū Gorge, with Ryūkyōtei Hotspring (龍峡亭) to the north and the Big Tenryūkyō Bridge to the south.
